Resources and different contexts

Understanding your audience and any particular needs they have is key to developing effective practical STEM activities and choosing the most appropriate resources.

This week we will look at gender, special educational needs and disadvantaged young people. We will consider how these aspects might impact on the activities we choose, the resources we select and how we can adapt our approach to be as inclusive and effective as possible as volunteers.

In addition to looking at research in this field, we will also hear from practitioners, including teachers and STEM Ambassadors.
